And since it is on Facebook, then it has to be true, not?

So how did I achieve this supreme accolade?

I introduced my 12 old niece while I was home last weekend to a Musical Mashup called

Gangstagrass (http://www.thebluegrassblog.com/gangstagrass-on-justified-tonight/)

A ‘mashup’ is a song created by combining two, or more, songs of differing genres (usually). Typically this is done using the lyrical content from one song and the instrumentation from another. This is widely popular in European pop. It is called a ‘mashup’ because you are basically mashing two thing together that wouldn’t normally find their way to the same space

Rench is a singer/songwriter/producer/mashup artist who has recently released an mashup album of bluegrass and hip-hop. He’s calling the work Gangstagrass. The recording is available for free via download. It includes 22 tracks total. The tracks are basically hip-hop lyrics laid over a track that includes drums and bass along with original banjo, dobro, fiddle, and mandolin riffs.

Her mother informed me that she was so impressed she posted on her Facebook Wall about her "really cool Uncle" ;-)

Of course now that I have reached the rarified heights of "really cool" I have to admit I have no earthly idea of how to maintain it,

Maybe a little laugh.
My grand daughter, said to me the other day,"coo grumpa", because out in the Forrest, I took her out of her car seat, and let her stand behind the wheel, and steer, as we cruised the back roads, (at about 3 MPH), she is typical woman driver, turning to "talk" to me as we drove.
Shocked me when she asked for phone, "cell grumpa, moma button, tell I drive" (call mom, and tell her she was driving!).
Now where did she get that?
